Request an asynchronous read of count bytes from the stream into the buffer
starting at buffer. When the operation is finished callback will be called.
You can then call gio.input_stream.InputStream.readFinish to get the result of the
operation.
During an async request no other sync and async calls are allowed on stream, and will
result in gio.types.IOErrorEnum.Pending errors.
On success, the number of bytes read into the buffer will be passed to the
callback. It is not an error if this is not the same as the requested size, as it
can happen e.g. near the end of a file, but generally we try to read
as many bytes as requested. Zero is returned on end of file
(or if count is zero), but never otherwise.
Any outstanding i/o request with higher priority (lower numerical value) will
be executed before an outstanding request with lower priority. Default
priority is G_PRIORITY_DEFAULT.
The asynchronous methods have a default fallback that uses threads to implement
asynchronicity, so they are optional for inheriting classes. However, if you
override one you must override all.

A value of count larger than G_MAXSSIZE will cause a gio.types.IOErrorEnum.InvalidArgument error.
